According to Transparency International data from
1979 till date, Both General Buhari and Former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s
tenure were more corrupt than President Goodluck Jonathan’s tenure.
The data also showed that GEJ period has the best
corruption perception index since 1979. This is in complete contrast to what
the opposition including Obasanjo, has been saying in the media about
corruption during the last 5 years.
Especially, Obasanjo has been strutting around
praising himself as anti-corruption hero; well, the organization he helped
found has called him a liar.
Shockingly, according to the TI data, Obasanjo’s
first tenure had the worst corruption during the 35 year period.
Here is a graph showing the corruption perception
index for the 35 year period
The TI corruption perception index is a rating of
countries from 1 to 100 showing their corruption scale.
A rating of 1 is the worst and and rating of 100
means a country is completely free of corruption. 50 is the pass mark and any
country below 50 is considered a corrupt country.
